STUDENT TESTIMONIALS
Prishita Gupta NAMG has bring a round about change in my life. it has opened the doors to the fashion industry for me, meeting the important people of the industry and working with them was lik a dream come true. The faculty has been supportive to every bit. When I had the Glam Icon trophy in my hands I knew that I got trained by the best people in the industry and I am in right hands.
Vaishnavi Vartak I was a person with very low self-confidence and was least aware of my poten- tial and capabilities until I participated in "Maharashtra Times Shravan Queen 2018". Under the guidance of Shakir Sir and Gwen Ma'am I was introduced to "MYSELF" the new version of "ME". And that helped me win "Miss Personality" in MT Shravan Queen. At NAMG I was well groomed and trained before step- ping in the real world of fashion. Now I have done a lot of catalogue shoots and looking forward to walking for best designers and doing print ads in the near future. I'm grateful and blessed to have mentors like Diandra Soares, Gwen Athaide, Shakir Sir, Sucheta and Harrison James for letting us know our posi- tives and negatives. "SUCCESS IS JUST THE SEED THAT GROWS WITH EVERY EFFORT YOU DO." I'm still in the journey of finding and evolving the new side of me each day and I'm enjoying this "ENDLESS JOURNEY OF SELF". 253 ADMISSION PROCEDURE
